Harvey Weinstein is having trouble adjusting to some of the rigors of sex rehab, like the necessary recovery task of facing up to the crimes he’s alleged to have committed, the number of which seem to grow daily, according to a new report in Page Six.

“In one group therapy session, Harvey arrived 15 minutes late,” a source told Page Six. “Then, when it was his turn to speak, he launched into a speech about how this is all a conspiracy against him.”

Claiming he’s a victim of some kind of vast media conspiracy won’t take the disgraced Hollywood mogul much further than briefly bolstering a deluded sense of righteousness. As of Friday, 58 women on two continents had accused the disgraced him of everything from sexual harassment to rape, NBC News said.

This number now includes Oscar-winning acress Lupita Nyong-o, who penned a detailed account of her dealings with Weinstein when she was still a promising drama student at Yale University and she said he tried to cajole her into giving him a massage in his home.

This number also includes an Italian model and actress who has claimed that Weinstein raped her four years ago in a Beverly Hills hotel. Her case is now under investigation by the Los Angeles Police Department, while police in New York City and London have also launched investigations into allegations made by multiple women.

Some of the most prominent women in film and television are among the 58 who say Weinstein used his position as a powerful producer to abuse women he encountered through his work, starting in the 1980s. His accusers include Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, Ashley Judd, Marisa Tomei and Rose McGowan.

As a result of their speaking up in the New York Times, the New Yorker and other outlets, Weinstein’s downfall has been stunning and swift. The scandal has also made things unpleasant, and even treacherous, for some of the A-list men in Weinstein’s professional orbit, who have either been accused of enabling Weinstein and other predators or of having their own histories of alleged mistreatment of women.

Now Quentin Tarantino is in trouble. He’s the Hollywood director most closely tied to Weinstein over the years, with their collaboration on such hit films as “Reservoir Dogs,” “Pulp Fiction” and “Inglorious Basterds.”

Tarantino has been condemned by other powerful industry figures like Judd Apatow for admitting to the New York Times that he knew about some of Weinstein’s abusive behavior towards women but didn’t speak up, challenge his friend or stop working with him.

Over the past two weeks, Weinstein has gone from sounding contrite and apologetic to angry and belligerent in his public statements. At one point, he threatened to sue the Times. He strongly maintains that none of his encounters with women involved non-consexual sex.

He initially told the Times that he recognized how his behavior with colleagues had “caused a lot of pain” and he vowed to work with therapists to “deal with the issue head on.”

Then again, he also blamed his behavior on the ’60s and ’70s, when the culture and “all the rules about behavior and workplaces were different.”

But if Weinstein is supposed to be dealing with the issue “head on,” the report in Page Six suggests he’s not being very cooperative with staff or other patients at his rehab.

He’s been seen talking into his banned mobile phone, falling asleep in group therapy sessions and insisting that none of his encounters with women were forced and insisting they were all consensual, Page Six said.

The source added that as others at the clinic shared their personal stories, “Harvey fell asleep in his chair. He was only woken up by the ringing of his smuggled mobile phone [which is banned at the facility] . . . Harvey jolted awake, jumped up, immediately took the call and then ran out of the room.”

And contrary to earlier reports or assumptions, Weinstein hasn’t checked into an inpatient facility. Instead, he’s being treated through an outpatient program, which allows him to spend nights at a hotel, Page Six said.

But another source told Page Six that this version of what Weinstein said or did in group therapy isn’t quite accurate, though he’s no longer joining group sessions “for obvious reasons.”

He’s undergoing individual treatment, where he willingly hands his phone over to someone else. Otherwise, Weinstein at most pleads guilty to acting like an “a–hole,” while insisting “he’s not a rapist,” the source told Page Six.
